    I think my pay was US$2.97/hour about this time.

    "Lest the inexperienced think this would be a low-paid job few would want, it should be noted that the pay [for postal sorters] begins at $4.22 an hour and tops at $5.51 per hour."
    — National City Star-News, 16 August 1973, page A-1.

    Ralph S. Colonell was the Postmaster at the time this photo was taken. I can't find a photo of him. We don't know if he's one of these people.

    "For use during the Christmas rush, the Post Office Department is offering this year a new 4-cent Christmas stamp for sale and is preparing for new postage rates starting January 7[, 1963]."
    — From The Coronado Eagle circa 1962.
